It's not perfect but it works.

A whole week to be precise. Now let's agree to disagree.

Absolutely.

The trick for a new Poster is to simply write about their problem without adding Links.
Such a Post is not moderated and you then attract the attention of the TGers; one who would invite the Poster to provide the links.
That way, a number of Moderators get to see the Post and can nudge the Moderator who is expected to release the Post. Most Moderators cannot see moderated Posts in other forums.

Hehe, tricks require knowledge.
Non moderators /new posters have no idea about the "who can see what under what circumstances".
Let's not get lost here, but I sure could enter likely a dozen other fora with less restrictions. Some, not all
of them have have manual approval for a couple of posts but if that is the case links are no problem.

Do you have any idea what I could do to improve the loading performance, in particular of the second sample?
Should I re-publish without Retina checked? Does it make sense to create a mobile variant or would one still
download all larger version images when calling the site from a phone?
